TIRE SIZE? 195/60/15 v. 195/65/15 v. 205/60/15 HELP!

Hi,
Need some advice. I'd like to replace the mismatched Firestone crap/Michelin Eco-crap tires on my 1991 Turbo Convertible. The car's factory fitment according to the owners manual is supposed to be 195/60 15 VR Rated.
I'd like to purchase the new Yokohama AVS dB Ultra High Performance All-Season tire primarily for it's ride comfort and low noise levels - important on a convertible - but still retain decent handling characteristics. Unfortunately, that tire only comes in the following sizes: 195/65/15 OR 205/60/15.
I'm leaning towards the 205/60/15, but am wondering if they will look strange or rub on the rather narrow 5.5" wide factory wheels... Does anyone have any information/pictures on 900's with 205/60's on factory wheels - BTW, I have a 91 SE Convertible, so it has the SPG style wheels.
Thanks for any input/help!
Gavin
